Sandwith Community Hall was the venue for the 13th annual Christmas Music Afternoon Dec. 18, hosted by the St. Philip’s Presbyterian group.
About 80 attended the program to participate or just enjoy the singing and the variety of excellent talent. The performers came from a wide area to sing and play musical instruments.
Rev. Doug Codling gave a brief Christmas message and the youngsters, and those young at heart, were thrilled at the end of the program when a jovial Santa arrived. Almost everyone stayed to visit and enjoy a coffee and the tasty lunch items.
The collection taken for the Battlefords Empty Stocking Fund set a record with the amount of $703.75, bringing the total contributed over the past 13 years to nearly $5,000.
